I don't see it as all too harmless to someone who is healthy and eats something like that once in a while but if you're obese and at risk of health conditions or just straight up unhealthy and eat unhealthy foods all the time, then you're going to have problems when you eat something crazy like these burgers.

I get full from a regular cheeseburger with fries so I know I definitely would have to take the rest of a burger like this home for later but it would suck because burgers taste so much better fresh https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_pumpkin.gif

Another X-Pole vote from me https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

I had long hair in 2007 that touched the small of my back but during one of my super depressed states, I pulled it all over my shoulder and took sissors to it, not even caring it was very crooked so after about a month, I wanted to get it fixed and my mom's b/f trimmed it for me and it eded up being about an inch above my shoulders. It was weird not having my long hair and I would sometimes forget it was gone and go to pull it over my shoulder to play with it. DAMN, I missed it a lot ;x

I wash my hair every over day – every 3 days, depending on if I start feeling grungie, haven't had a trim since then so after 5 years, my hair is back to where it was but an inch or 2 longer so I'm a believer that giving your hair time to get at least a little greasy is actually good for it because it's nourishment and it ends up growing faster than it would if you washed it every day.

I do have split ends so I'll eventually need to get it trimmed maybe a few inches. I dread sissors touching my hair though lol

I would have to put Justice Hailey at the top of my list. She's 7 years old and a master of the pole! Here's her Facebook page:

Tara's Youtube channel was one of the first 4 I checked out about two years ago before I knew pole dancing was more than just something women do in strip bars and saw the SV promoting in her channel then came here, browsed around and signed up. During the two years I've been lurking, I learned a bit about things I likely would never have learned about had I not been been open-minded about learning about the pole dancing fad.

Also, Tara Karina is one SEXAH name and it just stands out as well http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x58/DragonPhoenix82/Other/1527276lb76xkd518.gif

This social anxiety, is it pretty much the same as social phobia? I was diagnosed with depression, bipolar, ADD and social phobia a while ago myself and pretty much stayed in the house, only venturing out with someone else in the house to a store or to see my therapist once a week so moving from Maryland to North Carolina was quite a bit of a change after not doing much of anything with my life for the past 8 years.

Its always nice to know you're not a rare selection from the human population that got hit with things like anxiety. Its good to be able to relate to a bunch of others (though it isn't good that the dang crap exists lol)

 

Good to hear from ya though, you lil' pole vixen you and thanks for supporting SV. You helped bring a bunch of awesome peeps together.

I kinda assumed she got tired of perverts sending her messeges about their pecker size being the same length of her shoe heels, etc. etc. lol, and possibly got a serious staulker harassing her too close to home or something 🙁 . The thought of something bad happening had also went through my mind since theres a LOT of wackos out there that kidnap girls and they never turn up (I think I watch I.D. Discovery channel too much).

Thanks for the update, https://www.studioveena.com/users/view/bc3231ba-d89d-11df-ab19-12313b090e12. It would be great to get a shout from her that she's doing well.

Here's the site she has up too https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Sounds like a Maryland pole jam sometime, is in order. Not only would it be spiffy as a get-together but fellow polers may be able to help master some moves https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

It also sounds like the instructor would benefit from hiring at least one more instructor to help teach. If you're having doubts with the studio then it may be good to browse around for others closeby and see if they offer a tryout class or something, so you can get a feel of what they're like. Changes can be for the best. The hardest part may be explaining to the instructor. She will likely understand though.

There's many studios with different payment packages, one being with drop in classes and another being with punch cards that give you the option to come in any time for how ever many times the card is good for.

I need to work on my flexability as well https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_pumpkin.gif

 

Its likely that your cousin pushed too quickly and did a split when she wasn't ready and just tells you things judging from her personal experience. The first and only time I did a split was when I was about 9 years old at a skating rink when my legs went out the wrong way and my butt hit the floor. I was left skating towards the benches sore but it wasn't terribly bad since kids are more flexible but I would likely break my legs off if I accidently did a split today before I'm physically ready for one.

I wouldn't worry yourself over it. Flexibility doesn't happen overnight and neither do splits but training your body to do them pays off in the end. Watching Veena's vids will definitely help. I haven't purshased any yet though but everyone suggests them ^^

Also, Alethea Austin has videos out that help with flexibility and splits that you may find helpful. I'm definitely interested in them https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

I have a bunch of cheap silver hoop & stud earrings with six holes on my left ear/one on my right and wear a combo…. if I keep them all in for more than half the day, my holes get a little sore and bleed then the next day there's a dot of crust on some of them so I barely wear stuff in them these days.

I don't know WHAT metal they are because they are from places such as the Dollar Store, Family Dollar, Walmart, etc but they seem to have the same things in common: cute yet ouchy.

I'm now curious about which metal allergy I have exactly. I'll be glad when I find out though because I wouldn't mind going a full day without sore holes. Some of the holes were poked as far back as 1997 so it definitely isn't something new I'm experiencing.

Might see me at a future Bmore pole jam or an event sometime if I’m able to make it : D

im not sure if u want advice on finding a good pole or what? why did you "have" to reply to the ad?

I already have an idea of what I want to get, either a 45mm chrom X-Pole or a red Lil Mynx https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif . I felt I had to reply to the ad though, maybe save someone from getting screwed over with a bad pole. I would figure a pole is a pole and wouldn’t think there’s a such thing as a bad one so I’d end up wasting my money on whatever looks good, if I hadn’t came here and learned about them so I hope that I helped at least one person with making the right decision on not getting something dangerous https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif YAY! Just added myself https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

I thought I had found a good buddy map but it ended up being something completely lame and I wasted my time creating an account I couldn’t even delete https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif. Looks like it’ll be trickier than I thought, to find one as good as the one we had before.

[DragonPhoenix]

It’s pole related so I don’t see why not https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I cast my vote in, I really liked it a lot. The first photo in the set is so nice, I luv it https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumleft.gif
